why join the NHBF?
why you should become an nhbf member!
As you set out on an exciting career in the hairdressing or barbering industry, you’ve probably got big plans for the future – maybe self-employed chair renting will be the way forward for you after you’ve gained some experience, or perhaps your ambition is to open your own business.
Whatever dreams you have, we’re here to help them come true, says NHBF director of quality & standards Caroline Larissey.
The NHBF is a member organisation for hair and beauty professionals that offers a wide range of value-for-money benefits, as well as discounts on vital business essentials. It has also provided a key role in supporting the industry throughout the pandemic. Find out more: nhbf.co.uk/coronavirus
Always there for you
When you’re running your own business, either as a self-employed chair renter or the owner of a salon or barbershop, there will a lot to think about – from health & safety, tax, insurance and employment law to knowing how to turn a profit and grow your business into the future.
“As an NHBF Member – which currently costs less than 80p a day – you’ll have access to our friendly membership team for help with everyday business enquiries or our free 24/7 legal helpline for any trickier issues,” says Caroline.
Members also benefit from discounted insurance, free chair renting agreements, discounted health & safety toolkits, and much more.

Apprenticeships and traineeships
“Apprenticeships (nhbf.co.uk/ apprentices) are a great way to join the hair and beauty industry in the UK,” says Caroline. “and in the past year, traineeships, which are free to employers, have also become increasingly popular. Traineeships in England help 16-to-24-year-olds, or 25-yearolds with an education, health and care (EHC) plan, get ready for an apprenticeship or job if they don’t yet have the appropriate skills or experience to start one.”
